This study describes two new types of dermal keratinous cysts of the eyelids, derived from the pilosebaceous apparatus, each presenting distinct management challenges.

This study found that onychomatricoma can fully mimic the nail unit and differentiate toward the nail bed and isthmus, distinguishing it from other pilar tumors.

This case study reported a diagnosis of dermatophytic pseudomycetoma in a Persian cat with dermal nodules, highlighting potential heritable predisposition and suggesting systemic antifungal therapy for fair prognosis.

This study observed that Black women with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia had a higher prevalence of uterine leiomyomas compared to those with lichen planopilaris, suggesting a potential association between the conditions.

This study found a high prevalence of parasitic infections in cattle in the Mymensingh district of Bangladesh, with mixed infections being more common and highlighting the need for improved management practices.

This case report highlights that equine multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotropic disease should be considered in horses presenting with skin lesions and gastrointestinal symptoms, as illustrated by the progression in a 5-year-old horse despite treatment.

This study proposes that seasonal alopecia and reproductive changes in six female fossas at the San Diego Zoo may be linked to hormonal changes associated with reproductive activity.

This case report describes a 24-year-old woman with a stage IIIC retiform variant of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumour, highlighting the challenges in managing this rare ovarian tumour.

This report presents a case of molluscum contagiosum virus infection within an epidermoid cyst in a 13-year-old on long-term steroid treatment, highlighting its rare occurrence and need for histological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This study documents dominant transmission and complete penetrance of uncombable hair syndrome in a family, despite the father lacking visible abnormalities.

This study in Mosul City, Iraq, examined mange infestation in rabbits, finding that 43.1% of 130 rabbits were infested, with Sarcoptes scabiei var. cuniculi being most prevalent, and noted no significant gender differences but age-related variations in infestation rates.

This study describes a functional disorder in the ovary, known as stromal hyperplasia, characterized by the proliferation of ovarian stroma and luteinization of stromal cells, which is linked to excessive androgen production and elevated testosterone levels.

This case report describes the presence of a teratoma within an equine antral follicle and suggests that the ovary maintained functionality despite the teratoma, as indicated by active antral follicles and recent ovulation.

This report describes a rare case of Trichostasis Spinulosa on the heel, an uncommon location for this type of lesion.

In this case report, a 34-year-old with a slowly growing mass near the right parotid gland was diagnosed with pilomatrixoma, a rare benign hair follicle tumor, which was only confirmed pathologically after surgical excision.

This source reports a rare case of a 10-year-old child developing periorbital milia as an unusual cutaneous manifestation of chronic graft-versus-host disease following allogeneic stem cell transplantation, suggesting that immune-mediated epidermal disruption may lead to milia formation.

In this study, Msx2-deficient mice showed progressive hair loss due to shortened anagen phase and prolonged catagen and telogen phases, resulting in cyclic alopecia with structurally abnormal hair shafts.

This review discusses the diagnosis and management of acquired haemophilia and reports no new findings; the authors highlight the importance of early diagnosis to reduce mortality.

A rare skin growth was successfully removed without recurrence after one year.

This study observed that patients with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum levels of IL-15 and TNF-α compared to controls, with TNF-α levels particularly elevated in individuals with alopecia totalis, though these biomarkers were not influenced by disease duration or activity.

This study concluded that dermoscopy enhances the diagnostic capability for cicatricial alopecia beyond clinical inspection and identified novel dermoscopic features such as blue-grey dots.

This case report describes the trichoscopic and histological features observed in a 7-year-old boy with morphea en coup de sabre and details the positive response to systemic immunosuppressive therapy.

In this study, researchers observed monochorionic diamniotic twins with discordant clinical phenotypes, where one had high-grade trisomy 12p mosaicism in certain tissues, while the other showed confined mosaicism likely due to twin-to-twin transfusion.

This case report highlighted two instances of bezoar disease: a massive gastric trichobezoar in a teenage girl and multiple gastrointestinal phytobezoars in an adult man, underscoring the importance of CT imaging for diagnosis and the effectiveness of surgical intervention for removing large or multiple bezoars.

A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.

This study found that careful light microscopy using fluid-mounted hair improves detection of the pili annulati phenotype, which varies widely in expression and affects hair fragility.

The study reported that Demodex musculi infestation was notably higher in immunodeficient mice, while infested immunocompetent mice, particularly the BALB/c strain, showed increased IgE levels and developed alopecia over time.
